CLOSES A ONE-FOURTH CENT LOWER f'rnp I'roNpi'clH tin'Mnlii Cntinc of ( lie Contliiiicd AVfnknt'NN . Corn In UnclmiiKfil Ontu CHlCAaO. May 2a.-Whc- , after a hioment or two of firmness at the beginning of the nesslon , turned weak anil HO con * tinned nearly all throiiFii the rosslon. It closed , however , nt only a Vic decline , Weak cash markets and pro'pccts for a biff crop vero tnalnly reuonslblc for the weakness. Corn -was heavy , but closed unclnnt'ed. Oats managed to advance ' 4o anil provlslong closed ZWlao hlRhcr. In wheat the Liverpool market wan Inclined to flrmntss nt fltst nolwlthstnndlnB the pre vious day's wcikness hcie. The rise of July on that account was higher at the opening , llrst sales of that option being from C'JVic to CD o , yesterday's closing price being GSUc. It was generally remarked that If for no other reatxm than the fact of four consecu tive dnjB * dec'lno there should be some Im provement. While an advance frcnuently Bmppons under such circumstances this jnornlng'n comlltlnnn did not favor the rule. An ngnlnst the opening Ilrmncss nt Liver pool was the nbicnco of anything unfavor able to the growing crop , nnd although the plRnnl service olllclal came out with n pre diction that frost wnprolnble tonight In six of the wheat rulRlnt ; states the contldcncc In n big crop was undisturbed. In n. little more thnn an hour from the opening July hid sold down to cspcs',4c. ' Hulls got \ery little comfort out of the nortrrnest receipts. > Mln- ncnpoMs and Duluth reported a total of 427 cats , against -178 enr u year ago nnd 377 cars the correj > ondlng day of the year be- 001 * e , Chicago received sevpn cnrlonds nnd Inspected out C'SOOO ' bushels. Liverpool , which In the course of the day shoAcd > d advance over ycslcrday's closing price , stood at ! 4 < 1 locllne at the cloio today. Paris was from 35 centimes higher for nearby delivery to 10 centimes higher for September and Decem ber. In nntlclpitlon of early deliveries ot IIPW wheat all winter wheat markets where that grade was Ftlll bringing extravagant premiums over Fprlng wheat reduced the o iiremlumo considerably , so much so that It had n marked effect on speculation In futures. The Atlintlc pott cleannces of wheat and Hour were equal to 360,000 bushels The market gave no Indications of mending until about nn hour from the close , when covering by shorts bfcnmo quite liberal July Bold m > low ns f SUi fGSI&e before the reaction commenced which put U back to fOa about fifteen minutes from the close. The latest trading was nt < Vtc. Corn wan quiet nndweak most of the time , Influenced mo t by the large receipts , OC3 cars , nnd even larger estimates for tomor row. Hlcvator selling was not so heavy as 5festerda > 'H Shorts covered qulta freely throughout and the slight decline was u'tl- mately recovered. July opened a shade ( higher at ZUiGtZyic. declined to 23Wi23 sc and recovered to 23 = ic. where it clo = eu. Trading In oats was slow. At the oOenlng there was somn weakness caused by the largo receipts , 4CO cars. Shorts covered , this being about all the business doing. Country orders were not o Inrge. July oneneil a fhi\de lower at 17Vin7o and advanced to 17c That was the closing price. Provisions Ebovved sutprlslng steadiness In view of the heavy hog rece'pts nnd the weak , jirss of wheat. The = e factors had a slight effect nt the opening , but there was n gen- ci al Inclination to cover nnd by the c'ose a idleht advance had been scored all around. July pork closed 2'4c higher at JS02" ; : .Tulv lard nnd ribs 2 4i5c higher at J3G2'A36j ' nnd $1 3714 , respectlvclv.
